I can be your hero, babyI can kiss away the painI will stand by you foreverYou can take my breath away>>
Im back from RCY Challenge! :DApart from my sore limbs and terible ankle, im still pretty alright. Like, my voice is still present, loud and clear, although i cant exactly walk properly with my feet flat on the ground.
Nopes, i wont be blogging in much details bout the camp. But i feel the need to mention this: The camp's FUN!And BRAVO'S THE BEST DIVISION FOR RCY CHALLENGE 07! :D (oh yay!)
We're from BRAVO. We're familyWe're strong and cute. We're the winner.We dont care Alpha, heck-care Charlie.And Delta go away.BRAVO, BRAVO, family.BRAVO, BRAVO, family.BRAVO, BRAVO, family.
WE'RE FAIR-MER-LY!
It's fun working tgt with fellow mentors like yingsheng sir, lixuan maam, farhan, weiren, and mas!It's fun-ner, getting to know other instructors, meeting up with newredcross-ers!It's fun-nest, having so many batchmates together with you! Haha, for afew moments during the course of the camp, i feel as though we're all back in VIP camp, as campers.
So anwyays, we did quite alot of outdoor activities. Namely, the general station (consisiting of many structures which requires teamwork to help the group to pass the station), the dragon boating (which was totally fun, and saltyyyy), the street soccer and mountain biking at ubin (the biking was totally awesome! I WANT MOREEEE.), archery and evac/FA at RC campsite, rock climbing and challenge rope course, and lastly the heritage trail (which stopped pretty early due to the horrible nasty weather ]: ).Uh-hur! Although i din get to try out most of the stations, but i did enjoy myself during the biking part. Oh my my, let's go biking again one day!
Let's see. I've gained quitealot from this camp. Really.My first time as a group mentor in hq camps. Pretty interesting and exciting. (: Learnt alot bout how to RA-RA the group ( y'see, this is my FIRST non-training fun redcross camp that i've attended. So it's pretty much new) So yeah, how to go about talkin to them, encouraging and pushing them, trying to make them bond as one.Well, im quite sure i din exactly performed well, but im very sure that i've gain alot of knowledge from all the seniors, sirs/maam, esp ys sir. (:
Camp commandant is Lawrence sir. Oh yay! My all-time fave sir. Haha. I still rmbr what happen during ulp05. Lawrence sir is like Platoon A and C HERO! :D :D :D
Campfire was an indoor one, due to the rain. Derek, 07/07's prayer and strength didnt work! )': SOBS.But nevertheless, it's still pretty much successful! The camp spirit's so high and wonderful, everyone's singing campfire songs and shouting campfire cheers. Oh my, im lovin' it!
It's pretty sad that the 4D3N camp's over. Not that i dont wanna come home! Haha, part of me dont mind having the camp all over again! The other lazy part of me, wants to come right home and sleep my ass off. ((:So yeah, i had my fair share of fun, definitely. Be it those crazy times shouting cheers with the group, chatting to my section, trying to 'psycho' them to getting high for the camp, talking nonsensical stuff to fellow batchmates and seniors. Or those times when i find myself maturing and growing up, learning new stuff from seniors, like lawrence sir, ys sir, qj sir, etc.
Last but not least, i find my passion for redcross is coming back. (:Yknow for the past few days/weeks, i've been pondering over this question 'Where the heck did my passion for redcross go to?'And i got myself in a state of i-dunno-how-to-explain-this-state, like im pretty upset and disappointed with myself, for losing that passion. But yet, at the same time, im pretty much relieved over the fact that when my passion goes down alittle, i've that 'alittle' more time for my other events in life.Mm, but well well well. My passion seems to have came back after this camp. (:And cool, im settled with it. ;D
Im a Redcross Volunteer (proud to be one too), are you?
<3s!
&maybe things will be fine after awhile.
